Authorize the Executive Director of Public Works to submit an application for Environmental <br />Protection Agency / California State Water Resources Control Board's Drinking Water State <br />Revolving Fund financing for the Well 32 Nitrate Treatment and Rehabilitation project. <br />Adopt a Reimbursement Resolution and a Pledged Revenue and Funds Resolution required for <br />participation in the California State Water Resources Control Board's Drinking Water State <br />Revolving Fund program, pledging funds from any financing received through this program for <br />the Well 32 Nitrate Treatment and Rehabilitation project and authorizing the reimbursement of <br />expenditures for this project made prior to the receipt of such financing. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City's potable water comes from an underground basin and is pumped through 21 existing <br />wells. Well No. 32 is located at Morrison Park and has been inactive for about 10 years. The well <br />was taken off line due to low operating efficiencies and high nitrate levels. Given the limited water <br />supplies in the region and recent recurring droughts, rehabilitating Well No. 32 in order to put it <br />back in service would improve the City's water system efficiency and reduce the burden on other <br />water production facilities. <br />5513-1 <br />
